Home Tour: Vineetha Ramchandran

Starting the post with a famous quote by George A. Moore, "A man travels the world over in search of what he needs and returns HOME to find it." How succinctly this quote captures the emotion of every home dweller. Home holds a special place in heart of its dwellers.

Today I have a guest on my blog all the way from Dubai, Vineetha Ramchandran born and brought up in Dubai is a true blue Indian. She is also a Buddha lover and loves to surround herself with loads of colors just like me and I am of opinion that "Law Of Attraction" worked and we got acquainted on Instagram and then she gave me a sneak peek inside her home which I couldn't resist sharing with you all. Recently she took the plunge and started sharing delightful images of her abode on Instagram @The Gramophone Diaries. Though this home tour was supposed to go live ages ago but creating content for my YouTube channel is taking a toll on my writing skills and despite sitting for hours I couldn't write. So I decided to revive my passion for writing once again and now I'll try to post at least 2-3 blogs every month.

Over to Vineetha now as she gives us a tour of her home revealing all the relevant facts.

"As you know, I live in Dubai and working in advertising for the past 10 yrs. I share my home with my wonderful husband. I was born and brought up here. Like most South Indian families, my parents also enrolled me in everything from classical dancing to music to drama to arts. I believe this education in Indian arts has really shaped my outlook towards decor elements and especially color. Probably also why I am so attracted to everything that is boldly Indian. Majority of the decor accents are from travels. There are some that are from Indian vintage stores from down south."

I love how Vineetha has embraced colors with open arms and mixed them masterfully without making the place look overwhelming. Cool blue happily mingles with warm orange and together they create positive vibes and cosy ambience. Accent pieces range from vintage to modern and traditional to contemporary. One such vintage piece placed on the rug can't go unnoticed.

Further, Vineetha adds "I respect minimalism but it is definitely not my cup of tea (as you can probably tell :D). More is more and less is bore :D Hence everything at home is what I call collected clutter."

"I am obsessed with colors. I have a thing for quirky and kitsch stuff and it runs across my house. I am not a huge fan of mass retail furniture homes and prefer to collect my accents when I travel. I believe every home needs to tell a story and mine is that of an eclectic enchanted abode."

I can't agree more with Vineetha. When it comes to decorating a home we should showcase our personalities.

Vineetha enthusiastically says, "I am supremely fond of Buddhas. I have about 7 just in my living room".
And why not, when your life is too busy and contributing to yang energy then it is important to bring peace as calm yin energy will balance the active yang energy. Buddha is synonymous with tranquillity and hence placing Buddha can create a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere.

"The gramophone is my prized possession. We bought it from a vintage and antique store in a small town in Kerala."

"The frame in the hallway is something that I made with my spare coasters (again obsessed with coasters. I collect them wherever I go)."

"The shower curtain in the bathroom is one my faves at home"

You can easily breathe new life in your space simply by placing beautiful cushions on the couch. Vineetha knows this trick well and says, "I really go and invest in my cushions. I check online, I look for unique pieces when I travel. Super like statement cushions or cushions with a story."

Her love for colors and patterns is quite evident in her home. Here is an image of her bedroom that sums it up all. Colors that soothe senses and patterns that make me smile.

With this, we come to an end of this home tour. Thanks a bunch Vineetha for letting us all take a peek inside your gorgeous, vibrant and aesthetically pleasing home. Wish you love, luck & sunshine!!

That's all dear readers! I hope you enjoyed this post after such a long gap.

This is Diwali week and I wish you all a very happy and prosperous Diwali!! Have a safe and memorable one :)
